Overview

  • Assam is conducting land surveys at Uriamghat in Golaghat district ahead of planned eviction operations under the 1950 Expulsion Act.
  • Nagaland authorities have turned back over 200 vehicles carrying families displaced by Assam’s evictions, using check posts and community volunteers to verify Inner Line Permits.
  • Meghalaya Chief Minister Conrad K. Sangma convened a high-level meeting directing Deputy Commissioners to maintain strict border vigilance against unauthorized crossings.
  • Manipur has set up district task forces to record biographic and biometric details of detected migrants, secure them in designated facilities and deport them following due process.
  • No large-scale influx has been confirmed so far, yet neighbouring states continue enforcing unified protocols for registration, shelter and deportation of alleged illegal settlers.
